Hey guys, I've been sending out acouple emails but it appears that quite afew of the more well known stock makers aren't building stocks anymore.


I was wondering if anyone could recommend someone whom might be willing to build a custom stock for my steyr lp50 pistol. I'd like to use my lp50 primarily as a carbine but would like the option of shooting it as a two handed ft/silhouette pistol. I was thinking a lg110 type pistol grip with a detachable light weight FT style shoulder stock that could be attached/detached from the bottom of the grip. If this is too impractical to build, I would also settle for an anatomical thumbhole type carbine stock.

heres a pic a a nice thumbhole stock built by Egon "Roar" Olsen...

Very sorry to hear you're in pain and that we've lost your artistry, Joe.
Take care of yourself; I hear rumors that medicinal Mary Jane is very helpful.
Just a rumour, but I can vouch for it :wink:

I was quite a heavy pot smoker years ago, but can't stand the smell of it now. However once it becomes legal, and I can't handle the pain anymore, I may try it again.
I apologize to the poster for going off topic.
